You're right, there! It sucks! The fact is, in the not so distant past, the students actually had brains and used them creatively. Each year, many of us used to wonder, "What funny new cheer will the students come up with this year?" Now, the only creative aspect of cheering from the student section is for them to come up with something new to attach "SUCKS!" to. Any moron with a grade-school education can come up with "{fill in the blank} SUCKS!" It amazes me that 1,500 students who presumably all scored reasonably high on the verbal portion of the SAT's can't think of anything more creative than yelling, "{fill in the blank} SUCKS!". Of course, I guess I am expecting way too much since most of them are more interested in talking on their cell phones and generally not really paying attention to the fact that they are at a hockey game. I realize that I am something of an old fart relative to the hipsters of the student generation, but I can guarantee you that it wasn't that long ago when the students really were hip, creative, and intelligent. Those days are gone.

BTW, and yes, I have been to the Elizabeth Ikea on a Saturday.  I see places I recognize on the Sopranos, even, so if it's in North Jersey, there's a good chance I've been there.    [/Q]

Should I assume there have been many, many trips to Satin Dolls, then? :-P

I was rather fond of the:

"Nickerson is an embarrassment to the family atmosphere at Lynah and the family atmosphere at Lynah SUCKS!" cheer  ::laugh::

I liked the gospel guy during the second intermission... I was on the phone with my Mom at the time (who was watching the webcast), and all of a sudden she heard section A shout, "AMEN!"  "HALLELUJAH!!" and she couldn't stop laughing. ::laugh::
